I agree, there was some form of due process before.
That due process however was mostly a sham. Immigration courts are a show trial. They aren't part of the judicial branch. The "judges" work for the same guy as the prosecutors.
If the judge doesn't do as the president likes, they can be fired. Same with the prosecutors. These are shows put on so we can call ourselves a law abiding society.
EDIT: The torture prisons are new however.
Immigration courts are severely overburdened. You want to see how shit our whole justice system is have every American start filing frivolous law suits. This is how scientology got its protected status.
